Well, somebody had to start it!!..
Scannell, get him match fit hell boss this league, Rose and Williams  looks like they'll control midfield but we do need a back up for Hanson, good finish by Green but not an out an out front man.
Think we'll be fine thus season but not expecting too much for the first 6-8 games until the team settle..

Scannell and Pollock for my MoM. All the new guys impressed apart from Gibson, but only because he never really got the chance to. Green scored a good goal so he's half way through last seasons tally already. Scannell looks a class above this league if we can get him fit and then keep him fit I can only see good things at the moment. Special mention to the young lad Khouri thought he looked very composed when he came on

If we'd had a full preseason we'd of beat Morecombe today, it was only when tired legs started to kick in did they come back into the game get this squad fit and i'm very optimistic of our chances going forward.


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

Green scored 4 goals last season in all competitions. And today was only an EFL Cup match so he’s not half way to his league tally of 2 last season anyway.

We need a few weeks to get everybody fit and to get to know each other.

I think we will end up nearer the top than the bottom.

Agree we need a striker let's hope one of the new lads can cut the mustard.

We had a very young side out there come the end, squad depth will be a key and we dont have masses of experience beyond the first 15/16 which showed at the death.
Lack of pre season games also showed , on the odd occassion i think Preston forgot he was out on loan as he passed a couple of times straight to red and white     but his take and run for our goal was superb.

I liked the way we played most of the time once we’d settled after the early goal.  Back 5 looked composed most of the time and we have Hendrie to come back.  Preston, Waterfall, Pollock, Hendrie and McKeown must be a very decent L2 standard.

Midfield played it around nicely and the diagonal balls out wide worked well with Scannell’s quality on the end.  Will be interesting to see who are the first choice three.  Rose, Williams and then one from a few.  

I’d be surprised if Green and Tilley are first choice but Scannell looks a cut above.  His ability to control the ball was immense.

Seeing last season how Ollie can develop a team I feel like we should be looking up rather than down but maybe mid table with a hope of play offs rather than right up there.  

Exciting to see so many young players- is Khouri only 17? He could end the season in the first team.

Two things...

1) Couldn’t agree more with IH re not being allowed to make 5 subs. Some lads were out on their feet and no where near ready for 90mins. Ridiculous how it’s one rule for the prem and one for FL.

2) Was it just me or was the ref blowing his whistle twice all the time. Particularly noticeable during the pens. Can someone please explain?
